Abstract

A receiver is described. The receiver includes a first injection-locked oscillator having a first input configured to receive a BPSK signal and a second input configured to receive a first frequency reference. The receiver also includes a second injection-locked oscillator having a third input configured to receive the BPSK signal and a fourth input configured to receive a second frequency reference. Further, the receiver includes a first phase-locked loop coupled with the second input of the first injection-locked oscillator. The first phase-locked loop is configured to generate the first frequency reference. And, a second phase-locked loop is coupled with the fourth input of the second injection-locked oscillator. The second phase-locked loop is configured to generate the second frequency reference.
